    Default No Power Steer

    hey guys,

    Just picked my car up from tuner. It had been getting a turbo kit put on etc, but took the motor out to do it, so we can change all gaskets etc easier...

    Everything is back in, except power steering is not working now. I know with SW20, that after 60km it turns off, could there be a plug loose? I havent even checked for fluid yet, but will do.

    yeah gotta check it all. The Relay is a common issue and turning the car on & off a few times usually fixes it, so i have read.

    relay or wiring, apparently the PS light is supposed to go on when you switch the key to on position..

    Mine never has, nor has the ABS they have been removed

    MR2 is light anyway! and you got small lightweight wheels! lol
